[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2435891, member: 118038"] In fact Mike, you have egged me on with your thoughts about POI, and in my mind how that connects to OCW that I now want to propose this: There is a common thread in why Saterlee, Audette Ladder, and OCW theory are all related and work. The convergence of these three methods of load development can all be traced back to barrel harmonics as a function of pressure as the unifying science behind why they all work, just from different angles. The Unified Science of Load Development is all related to Barrel Harmonics and to pressure interaction with the harmonics. It all starts simply trying to find the charge weight and bullet seating depth that will make your specific rifle shoot small groups. But what is going on here is finding the optimum pressure wave combination eminating from the explosion and pulsing up and down the barrel multiple times before the bullet exits. Find the right combo where the muzzle is in the same consistent position at bullet exit every time and presto small groups. Only works for that barrel, that stock, that bullet, that powder and charge weight.....hmmm... What science explains how the answer varies rifle to rifle, bullet to bullet, powder to powder, charge weight to charge weight? Monitor pressure via velocity as a proxy.......it tells a story, but the final answer is what the target and MOA measurement itself says. [/QUOTE]
